Greeley is the largest city and the county seat in Weld County. It is a place where the generosity and warmth of its residents fit nicely with our big city amenities and down home comforts.
From Fort Collins to Greeley, and even over to Estes Park, Northern Colorado has a rich and diverse history that has been well-preserved in its many historic homes — something we're very passionate about, as a real estate company. From... Link to the Article
When Horace Greeley, the great New York newspaperman said, "Go West, young man", a young idealist named Nathan Meeker listened. Meeker did come west, along with 59 other intrepid settlers, and put down roots here on the western edge of Colorado's high plains. Originally known as the Union Colony, Meeker called his new settlement "Greeley," in honor of the inspiration and support received from his boss and journalistic colleague.
Meeker designed Greeley to be an agricultural utopia based on the following principles: Cooperation, Irrigation, Agriculture, Temperance, Faith, Family and Education. Times have certainly changed, but Greeley is still a community where residents work hard, watch out for each other, and generously dedicate their time and resources to improving the community.
Greeley is the largest city and the county seat in Weld County. It is a place where the generosity and warmth of its residents fit nicely with our big city amenities and down home comforts. Greeley continues to grow its downtown, commercial, and industrial districts boasting numerous new restaurants, businesses and corporate company headquarters.
Its thriving economy, comfortable climate (over 300 days of sunshine per year!), panoramic views of the Front Range Rocky Mountains and close proximity to outdoor recreation help Greeley live up to its national designation as an "An All America City."

The main campus of Aims Community College (www.aims.edu) is also located in Greeley offering programs and degrees in health and fire science, aviation and energy, just to name a few.
School District 6 offers residents of Greeley and Evans multiple educational options for their children in award winning programs for academic success and career track preparation. The teacher to student ratio is 24:1 and average ACT scores are 21.1. Private, charter and magnet schools are all part of the outstanding K-12 educational mix.
Collaboration between The City of Greeley and local schools has created the GTown Promise to help students get the additional help and financial assistance they need to attend college and to become successful adults. The program includes career planning support, local internships and mentoring, leadership development, opportunities to participate in after-school and extra-curricular activities, as well as funding for post-secondary education.
If you are an exercise fanatic you'll find that there is a lot to do in Greeley. Golf (with 2 tournament level public courses and the Greeley Country Club) and tennis (with numerous courts) are popular pastimes as well as over 40 traditional and open space parks, dog parks and 3 disc golf courses. These amenities offer miles of walking, jogging, in-line skating, and other leisure activities including the 21 mile Poudre River Trail and the Sheep Draw Trail, as well as over 90 miles of bike lanes and off street paths. The Family FunPlex, Downtown Recreation Center, the Ice Haus and the Rodarte Center offer community recreational opportunities including climbing walls, racquetball, basketball, volleyball, year-round indoor ice skating and hockey, swimming, an indoor water park, indoor running track and exercise rooms with classes and leagues for all ages.
Every year, for about 10 days in June and July, Greeley goes cowboy when it welcomes world class rodeo to town for the Greeley Stampede. Entertainment is a big part of the Stampede featuring top national performers every year. The annual UNC/Greeley Jazz Festival, the Greeley Blues Jam, the Arts Picnic, the Colorado Model Railroad Museum and Centennial Village living history museum are some of the city's other major attractions.
Beyond Greeley's borders there's a wide world of outdoor activity. Just to the east of town lies the beautiful and unique Pawnee National Grassland and to the west are Roosevelt and other national forests, wilderness areas, and Rocky Mountain National Park, the ultimate playgrounds for the outdoorsman and outdoorswoman.
If you're more interested in sports as a spectator than as a participant, UNC is a Division I mid-major college powerhouse. And Denver, with its plethora of professional sports teams (including the Broncos, Colorado Avalanche, Denver Nuggets, Colorado Rapids and Colorado Rockies) is only an hour away. Closer yet are the Colorado Eagles, a minor league hockey team. At Greeley's year-round indoor ice arena, the Greeley Ice Haus, you can watch college level play or participate in youth and adult leagues yourself.
Culturally, Greeley is light years ahead of similarly sized cities for two reasons. First, the University of Northern Colorado has a superior, nationally recognized Performance Arts department. The second is Greeley's Union Colony Civic Center state of the art 1665 seat theater, which hosts a variety of stage productions, music, ballet, and national acts. It is also home to the Greeley Philharmonic Orchestra and the Greeley Chorale. The Greeley Philharmonic is one of the oldest orchestras in the west having celebrated its 104th anniversary in 2015.
North Colorado Medical Center sits conveniently in the center of town and provides excellent, full-service healthcare for Greeley residents. As a Level II Trauma Center complete with MedEvac (a regional air-medical transport service) NCMC is at the forefront of Northern Colorado's regional healthcare. Additional clinics (emergency and other) are plentiful offering convenience and a wide selection of physicians including specialists in a number of health care fields. This Regional hospital was ranked in 2015 as one of the nation's top 50 hospitals (Healthgrades).
Major employers in Greeley include JBS USA, Banner Health/North Colorado Medical Center, Noble Energy, DCP Midstream, Hensel Phelps, Leprino Foods, the University of Northern Colorado, State Farm Insurance, Xerox Business Services, and TeleTech.
If creating and managing your own business is your dream, then you'll find UNC's Small Business Development Center and recently created BizHub Incubator to be the perfect place to start on your path to entrepreneurial success.

Tiny new Kardashian addition Penelope Scotland Disick happened yesterday, the second child (after 2-year-old Mason) for Kourtney Kardashian and Scott Disick. The 7-lb, 3 oz. baby was delivered "all-naturally" at Cedars-Sinai Medical Center after Kourtney's brief flirtation with water birth. "Scott and I are overjoyed to welcome our precious angel Penelope Scotland Disick into our lives. We are forever blessed. Mommy and baby are resting comfortably," said Kardashian. Like Mason's birth, Penelope's was filmed and they are considering putting it on national TV. (As you are doubtlessly already aware, they are two of the stars of period ensemble drama Downton Abbey.)

Today in Things You Could Have Guessed If You'd Only Had The Energy To Think About Them, back in 1997 Mick Jagger developed an unreciprocated sexual obsession for Angelina Jolie. She was married to British actor Jonny Lee Miller then, but her mom Marcheline Bertrand, a Stones fan, encouraged her to lead Jagger on because "he could teach her about fame." #goodreasons. But Jolie was busy with her husband and other men and just messed with Jagger's head, leaving him "virtually sobbing" into the phone. Angie, you can't say we never tried. [news.com.au]
Some extremely sad news this morning: Usher's 11-year-old stepson Kyle Glover has been declared brain-dead after a weekend spent in critical condition in the wake of a boating accident on Friday.

Usher charted a private jet to fly Kyle's mom, his ex-wife Tameka Foster, to his side after the child suffered a blow to the head and was knocked unconscious.

Carrie Underwood's special connection with CMT viewers helped her continue her run at the CMT Awards — and crash Luke Bryan's party.
Underwood won her third straight video of the year Wednesday night, taking the top honor for the fifth time with "See You Again." The "American Idol" champion is CMT's top overall winner with 11 belt buckles in her career.
Underwood managed to horn in on all the fun top winners Bryan and Florida Georgia Line were having. The two acts teamed up to win collaboration of the year for "This Is How We Roll" — a song they performed at the top of the show with Jason Derulo and ZZ Top and released as a remix with Derulo — and each won another belt buckle trophy.
Underwood teamed with Miranda Lambert to shut down the show with their song "Somethin' Bad" and was clearly surprised when she took fan-voted video of the year.
"It's really hard to believe," Underwood said on stage. "I've been doing this for nine years but every single second of those nine years you guys have been amazing."
Underwood was probably surprised because it looked like it might be shaping up for a double Bryan-FGL win for "That's How We Roll." It was one of the few times Bryan didn't win. Male video of the year winner Blake Shelton bet against himself in the category, wagering that Bryan would win the category. Shelton won for "Doin' What She Likes," and now he'll be doing what Bryan likes.
"I owe Luke an expensive dinner, but that's OK," Shelton joked.
U.S. & World
Bryan was a constant fixture early in the awards. He teamed up with his superfriends to kick it off, mashing up "This Is How We Roll," Derulo's "Talk Dirty" and ZZ Top's "La Grange." He took a shot from host Kristen Bell about falling off the stage last week — while wrapped in yellow warning tape.
And he and FGL helped Bell with her monologue, taping a segment poking fun at the Jay Z-Solange Knowles elevator dustup, complete with black-and-white security footage.
He returned to the stage later after winning CMT performance of the year with Lionel Richie for their performance of "Oh No" and "All Night Long" from "2013 CMT Artists of the Year."
"The fact that I have won an award with you is just amazing, buddy," Bryan said from the stage.
"All I can say is, if I'm having this much fun, let's do it again," Richie responded.
Bryan returned to sing his own hit "Play It Again" while he strolled through the audience.
Richie said Bryan is experiencing a run much like his own in the mid-1970s that made him an international star.
"Every once in a while — and it happened to me — there's a moment and time in your career when the forces and stars come together ... and this is Luke's time," Richie said. "I knew it the first time I met him. It really is special. You can see it in his eyes. You can see it in the way he acts. He feels empowered right now and I know that wonderful feeling. And by the way, it's going to happen for a while because he has that genuine personality. "
The Bryan-FGL-Derulo-ZZ Top mega-mashup wasn't the only team up. John Legend, Jennifer Nettles and Hunter Hayes joined together on a countrified version of Legend's hit "All of Me." Eric Church and Lzzy Hale of hard rockers Halestorm turned the volume up to 11 on a version of "That's Damn Rock & Roll" that featured power vocals from Hale and a rap from Church.
Kacey Musgraves and Lee Ann Womack teamed up to salute Alan Jackson with a duet of his song "Livin' on Love" after he was awarded with the first CMT Impact Award. Jackson is celebrating the 25th year of his career.
Keith Urban performed "Cop Car" in a spot-on re-creation of Nashville's legendary The Bluebird Cafe that was surprisingly lifted into the rafters as Urban wrapped up the song. And Little Big Town put on the night's most colorful performance of the new single "Day Drinkin'," beginning on an all-white set before paint cannons turned everything into a rainbow.
The Band Perry won group of the year for "Done" and Cassadee Pope took breakthrough video for "Wasting All These Tears."

Today's Music: Paul McCartney – Hope of Deliverance
Days Til Spring: 27!!!
I'm ecstatic! The temperature is above freezing! The weekend is almost here! And I got to read some great stuff this week too. Here's some of what I saw…Samantha Hines wrote about a porch that was more than just a porch.T. Dawn gave a great fiction piece about being someone else, and this one's a little old, but Quirky put up quite possibly the most hilariously disturbing food post I've been lucky to read. It has donuts. That's all I'm going to say.
A great week of reading, from them and everyone else, so thanks for that!
Oh, and TwinDaddy at Stuphblog is highlighting me on Feature Friday! Probably because he's trying to lose followers. But I hope y'all pop over to check him out and follow. He's a great voice in the cloud.
But one particular time when it doesn't seem like anyone was reading was Valentine's Day. In last week's poll, we asked how, instead of doing the traditional things, you'd be celebrating. And I don't think Hallmark makes cards for all your ideas. Here's what you said. (As always, my comments are dressed skimpily in italics
Catching up on all the foolishness… It is Friday after all (Kanerva)
(So…watching couples fight for parking at overcrowded restaurants?)
Hybernating until spring. Kayjai
(That's barely a one month nap. Is it even worth it?)
Celebrating Zombie Day instead 🙂 Don't ask… Andro
(And Jesus appreciates your devotion!)
Searching the TV Guide in hopes of a new episode of Shark Tank. ~Maddie

Washing my hair (Elyse 54.5)
(You were doing it in slo-mo, with that head flick, right?)
Hunting around in the yard for Cupid's arrow, since it missed me and my house.
(Doesn't having a diaper clad sniper in the neighborhood make the real estate values go down?)
to donate my heart, which is like a trampoline- stomped on and resilient. Samara
(It's the Timex of organs!)
Celebrating National Organ Donor Day, which also falls on Feb 14. Samara
(I wonder how many overused livers they reject on the 15th…)
Hoping none of my friends catch the VD… 1 Jaded 1

Canceling my plans and vomiting all weekend, huzzaaahhhugh –Aussa Lorens
(Funny, those usually are my plans…)
Drinking heavily.
(So…nothing special for Valentines Day.)
Trying to remember what romance was like before children. And drinking. Deanna
(For many of us, it's the drinking while being romantic that leads to children.)
I will be offering group Commando weekends, well if it's warm enough 🙂 Andro
(I really don't want to hear about disassembling the rifles for cleaning.)
Enjoying a Saturday night in alone, strike that idea I want some fun 🙂 Andro
(How about organising an orgy?)
organising an orgy for something else, hopefully 🙂 Andro
(Sure, steal my idea…)
shoveling snow…sigh SnB
(Hey, it's better than how the elephant tender at the zoo is spending his Valentine's Day!)
Trying to figure out why my old Christmas tree is stuck to my balcony.
(That holiday spirit is year round!)
Celebrating St. Patrick's Day early. – Hotspur
(I thought the early partying for that started March 18th?)
Cooking a beautiful dinner for me and the lovely Mr S. Valentine's rules okay r
(Wait – the rules are she has to cook for him???)
I think instead of celebrating I will be going to the doctor to clear up that annoying rash left over from the last romantic holiday I celebrated…… PMAO
(No one celebrates groundhog day like you!)
(Thank goodness.)
Spending time on C4C with lonely blogging buddies – Benzeknees
(Look, if you're going to say stuff like that, it's very hard to mock you.)
(Which doesn't mean I won't try.)
But I like Valentine's Day…dammit, so much for my clever answer.
(Don't feel bad. I never have clever answers.)
Shoving Cupid's arrows up his keister, gently of course. polysyllabic profundities
(Downtown, they usually charge extra for gentle.)
Celebrating Valentoons Day watching a PePe Lepu Marathon-Linda Vernon
(Umm…those are episodes of TLC's Strange Love: Skunks…)
Seeing a flemish bluegrass arthouse flick about cancer. For real (rollergiraffe)

Buying a box of Valentine's Day cards and having a bonfire with them – Twindaddy
(Ah, fanning the flames of love…)
working on the other kind of VD – you know the STD kind… Rutabaga
(One Standard Valentines Day, coming up.)
Prepping for my colonoscopy.
(Dinner and drinks with the proctologist first?)
Packing for my holidays! YAY!!
(I hope your suitcase is big enough to fit the whole class.)
Congratulations to the anonymous patron for this weeks winning answer! And from the offered choices, the most popular was a tie between Coming down from the post-Olympics high. (Curling is intense!) and Sending Ben & Jerry's stock through the roof. (Loneliness never tasted so good.). So congratulations to all you Olympic level ice cream eaters out there!
This week finds the Greater Republic of Guapola in a ponderous mood. Philosophical even! But instead of Socrates famous "Like the sands through the hourglass…" (mostly because sand makes me think of chafing in awkward areas) we focus instead on Descartes "I think, therefore I am". So this weeks question is What do you think?
Answer often, and take your time to ponder, because this one closes in ten days, on Monday 3 March, at 2359 EST. (My brain will need the extra week to recover from all this thinking, so no foolishness next friday. It's also possible I'll just be hibernating.)
Try and limit your write ins to four answers, and if you like, leave a name on your write-ins, and I'll link back to you next week.
And as we had into the weekend, enjoy these!
First, here's a clever falling domino set up. Turn your speakers down a bit, because the music is electronica.
Unless you like electronica, in which case I forgive you.
And finally, a brilliant ode to the Spiderman Musical. With flying!
(I think the audience member is Exile on Pain Street.)
And until we meet again, have a great weekend, and a thorough foolishness!

Belayer Pulls Leader Off Ice Climb
On the morning of February 5, two climbers (who requested anonymity) were halfway up the second pitch of Glenwood Falls, a popular ice formation just east of Glenwood Springs, Colorado. The leader, an experienced ice climber, was accustomed to leading using a system where he would climb until he got pumped, plant a tool and yell down "fifi on," a request for slack.
On the morning of February 5, two climbers (who requested anonymity) were halfway up the second pitch of Glenwood Falls, a popular ice formation just east of Glenwood Springs, Colorado. The leader, an experienced ice climber, was accustomed to leading using a system where he would climb until he got pumped, plant a tool and yell down "fifi on," a request for slack. His belayer would dial out some rope and he would drape it over his tool and say, "hooked." The belayer would then take in rope and he would hang and rest.
On this day, he became pumped and said "fifi on" but didn't feel slack. Again he said "fifi on" but the belayer misinterpreted the command as "hooked."
"I felt myself being pulled off the structure as she was taking the slack," the leader told Rock and Ice. "I started panicking and started screaming 'give me some slack' at the top of my lungs. When I felt slack, I tried pulling the rope to the axe and it's then that it all happened."
His crampons sheared out of the ice and he fell 30 feet, impacted a step of ice and broke his fibula and talus. Fortunately, two local climbers Tom "Bo" Bohanon and Michael Kennedy, arrived at the base of the ice and helped the injured climber to the road, where they put him into Kennedy's car and drove him to Valley View Hospital in Glenwood Springs.
Glenwood Falls is a complex south-facing ice flow, with bulges, steps, runnels and five established routes. In some sections, the belayer can't see the climber. Furthermore, incessant car and truck noise from Interstate 70 (only 200 yards away) reverberates off the walls of the narrow canyon and makes hearing commands difficult, and at times, impossible. In this case, the lack of visibility and noise resulted in a miscommunication.
Climbers must work out a series of commands that are easy to interpret even when the parties can't see or hear each other. These commands need to be dissimilar. For example, climbers often use "take" and "slack" to mean opposite things, but when separated by a rope-length, the two words can sound the same. Better to use "up rope" and "slack." Communication should be kept to a minimum, especially in situations where noise is a factor.
Troubleshoot all relevant scenarios from the ground. Will you lower, rappel or bring up the belayer? You might need to communicate with tugs on the rope (e.g., three sharp tugs means off belay). It is imperative to decide what your signals/commands will be, then stick with the prearranged plan. Any superfluous communication can be misinterpreted.
In this situation, the leader used a non-standard method for resting—and it had worked on many climbs. That said, there are better ways to rest that don't depend on being able to communicate with the belayer. For example, you can clip in directly to the spike of your axe. This keeps your weight low on the tool, with less chance of levering it out of the placement. Even then, you should be wary of hanging from a single tool and back up the placement with a second tool or screw.
Keep in mind that ice climbing is precarious. Protection sometimes fails under body weight [see Accident Report, No. 193]. The safest way to climb ice is to stick with flows that you can lead from bottom to top without stopping and taking, keeping three points of contact whenever possible. The old rule still stands for water ice: The leader must not fall.

Yorkshire posted an article on The First Street Journal that discussed Reed Exhibitions' sudden and unilateral decision to side with the anti-constitutional, Second Amendment killing gun grabbers and the aftermath of that decision. One sixth of the exhibitors and celebrities pulled out of the nation's largest outdoor sportsman's show in a show of solidarity with the US Constitution. You can find a large (but incomplete) list of the boycotters here. That list includes Cabelas, one of the nation's premiere big box stores dedicated to the outdoor sportsman, muzzle loaders, knife businesses, bow organizations and businesses, turkey call companies, fishing related companies and organizations, conservationists, television shows and celebrities, and much, much more.
Reed Exhibitions tried to shrug it all off as "a small percentage of more than 1,000 exhibits" as if Cabelas was equivalent to Kokosing Backwater Beaver Traps, but decided to "stop loss" (an investment term for the first rule of holes) and cancel the show. Granted, they called it "postpone" but if Reed Exhibitions continues to side with the anti-constitutionalist gun grabbers, there will be no show. Period. Because the celebrities and exhibitors necessary for such a show will not participate and the people who go to such a show will not attend. As it is, Reed Exhibitions severely and possibly permanently harmed its reputation with the very people it depends upon for millions of dollars of profit a year.
Hey, Reed Exhibitions, spoiler alert: I watched Red Dawn and your side loses.
Constitution lovers, check out the list of boycotters and support them with your outdoor recreation dollars. You don't have to be a hunter or even a gun owner. If you're into boating, fishing, camping, hiking, mountain climbing, conservation or any other outdoor recreation, you can find your equipment and educational needs among that list.

Today in the news: Man shot ex as she played organ at church
Quote of note
"There are no words that explain this event, however, we will focus on moving forward and taking care of those students who are entrusted to our care each day," said a statement issued by Superintendent Alanna Huck, head of the Coudersport Area School District where an elementary school music teacher shot his ex-wife, 53-year-old Darlene Sitler. Sitler, the choir director of First United Presbyterian Church, was seated at the organ when she was shot about 20 minutes into the 11 a.m. service, state police said.

Way back in the twentieth century—1969, to be precise—Michael Heizer had the idea for an artwork he'd call Levitated Mass. It would be a massive rock perched atop a long slot in the earth. He even got so far as to start creating the artwork in the Nevada desert: he had a 120-ton rock and he dug out the slot. Unfortunately, one of two cranes he was using to mount the rock buckled under the weight, and the project was not completed.
Here we are more than four decades later, and Levitated Mass is complete. The rock is a little heavier (340 tons), the slot is a little longer (456 feet), and the site is a little more accessible (right in the middle of Los Angeles). Also, a few more people know all about it: back in March you couldn't change the channel or open your local paper without hitting upon the story of the transport of the boulder from Jurupa Valley to LACMA. Thousands of people came out every single day and night to see this boulder move across Southern California to its destination at the museum. And now we're inviting all of those people—and everyone else, too!—to come see Levitated Mass as it officially opens to the public this Sunday.
We will be holding a public dedication ceremony at 11 am on Sunday. County Supervisor Zev Yaroslavsky and Mayor Antonio Villaraigosa will join Terry Semel, chair of LACMA's board of trustees, and LACMA CEO and Wallis Annenberg Director Michael Govan in the official opening of the artwork, after which everyone is invited to walk through the slot, under the rock, and out the other side.
The ceremony is free to attend, as is the experience of Levitated Mass (whether you come for the dedication or arrive later in the day). If you're coming with family, enjoy our free Andell Family Sunday activities while you're here. We'll also be tweeting from the ceremony and throughout the day, so follow us (or talk back to us!) on Twitter, hashtag #LevitatedMass.
As a special bonus for those who live in the communities through which the boulder passed on its journey, we are also offering free admission to the rest of our galleries. If your zip code is on this list, simply show proof of residence (a driver's license will do) at our box office and you'll be on your way to explore the collection. Can't make it on Sunday? That offer is good all the way through July 1.
(And one more tip, for everyone, while we're at it: have you heard about our Summer Pass? Buy a general admission ticket anytime between now and June 30 and you automatically get three free months of membership benefits. That's free admission any time, discounts in our stores and on tickets for films and concerts, and more. More details here.)
In any case, Levitated Mass never requires museum admission, whenever you decide to visit, as is the case for our other outdoor sculptures like Chris Burden's Urban Light. See it this week, see it next week, see it all summer, see it next year, see it in 2022… you get the idea. Levitated Mass isn't going anywhere. 40+ years after Michael Heizer conceived of the idea, Levitated Mass is finally here to stay.

Review: De la Tierre (Maple Liqueur Tequila)
Posted by Arctic Wolf on June 24, 2012
De la Tierre is an interesting fusion of 100% Blue Weber Agave Reposado Tequila, Pure Amber Maple Syrup, and flavours extracted from Ceylon Cinnamon Bark. The Reposado Tequila used is distilled in a copper pot still and aged in American Whiskey barrels; the natural Maple Syrup is preservative free and contains no GMOs or artificial flavors; and the flavours extracted from the Ceylon Cinnamon Bark are extracted through a distillation process in copper stills from off-grade bark, leaves and roots.
I received a sample of the De la Tierre from Pure Global Imports, who are the local distributor for this product.
Here is an excerpt from my review:
"… The maple syrup gives the spirit a heavy body, and the initial aroma rising from the glass is a nice mixture of maple syrup and agave. If the glass is allowed to sit the smell of cinnamon soon joins, and over time it begins to dominates the breezes above the glass… "

Two of my favorite guilty pleasures of 2010, "Machete" and "TRON: Legacy" have been summed up rather succinctly in separate and unrelated animated videos out this week. For the former (which arrives on DVD/Blu-ray today), Danny Trejo voices a Claymation version of his character for a Brisk iced tea commercial that abridges the movie into one minute. I don't recall Machete washing his hands so much, though. And why no reference to everyone's favorite line, "Machete don't text"?
As for the "TRON: Legacy" clip, it's an obvious but well done piece of pixelated 8-bit video game animation complete with an 8-bit remix of Daft Punk's "Derezzed" track from the score. I wish there was a little more to it than the 25 seconds of light cycles and disc battle. No 8-bit Jeff Bridges?
Watch both videos after the jump.

Jews reclaim Jesus as one of their own
By Richard Allen Greene, CNN
(CNN) - The relationship between Jews and Jesus has traditionally been a complicated one, to say the least.
As his followers' message swept the ancient world, Jews who did not accept Jesus as the Messiah found themselves in the uncomfortable, and sometimes dangerous, position of being blamed for his death.
Mainstream Christian theology's position held that Judaism had been supplanted, the Jewish covenant with the divine no longer valid, because of the incarnation of God as Jesus and his sacrifice on the cross.
Jews, for their part, tended largely to ignore Jesus.
That's changing now.
In the past year, a spate of Jewish authors, from the popular to the rabbinic to the scholarly, have wrestled with what Jews should think about Jesus.
CNN's Belief Blog: The faith angles behind the biggest stories
And overwhelmingly, they are coming up with positive answers, urging their fellow Jews to learn about Jesus, understand him and claim him as one of their own.
"Jesus is a Jew. He spent his life talking to other Jews," said Amy-Jill Levine, co-editor of the recently released "Jewish Annotated New Testament."
"In reading the New Testament, I am often inspired, I am intrigued. I actually find myself becoming a better Jew because I become better informed about my own history," she said.
Rabbi Shmuley Boteach, a media personality who recently launched a bid for a U.S. House seat, argues in his own new book, "Kosher Jesus," that "Jews have much to learn from Jesus - and from Christianity as a whole - without accepting Jesus' divinity. There are many reasons for accepting Jesus as a man of great wisdom, beautiful ethical teachings, and profound Jewish patriotism."
And Benyamin Cohen, an Orthodox Jew who spent a recent year going to church, admitted that he's jealous that Christians have Jesus.
"He's a tangible icon that everybody can latch on to. Judaism doesn't have a superhero like that," said Cohen, the author of the 2009 book "My Jesus Year."
"I'm not advocating for Moses dolls," he said, but he argued that "it's hard to believe in a God you can't see. I'm jealous of Christians in that regard, that they have this physical manifestation of the divine that they can pray to.
"There could be more devout Jews than me who don't need that, but to a young Jew living in the 21st century, I wish we had something more tangible," he said.
The flurry of recent Jewish books on Jesus - including this month's publication of "The Jewish Gospels: The Story of the Jewish Christ" by Daniel Boyarin - is part of a trend of Jews taking pride in Jesus, interfaith expert Edward Kessler said.
"In the 1970s and 1980s, Christian New Testament scholars rediscovered the Jewish Jesus. They reminded all New Testament students that Jesus was Jewish," said Kessler, the director of the Woolf Institute in Cambridge, England, which focuses on relations between Jews, Christians and Muslims.
A generation later, that scholarship has percolated into Jewish thought, he said, welcoming the trend: "It's not a threat to Jews and it's not a threat to Christians."
For Jews in particular, he said, "It's not so threatening as it was even 30 years ago. There is almost a pride that Jesus was a Jew rather than an embarrassment about it."
Boteach agrees, writing in "Kosher Jesus" that "Jews will gain much from re-embracing him as a hero."
"The truth is important," Boteach writes. "A patriot of our people has been lost. Worse still, he's been painted as the father of a long and murderous tradition of anti-Semitism."
Boteach aims to claim, or reclaim, Jesus as a political rebel against Rome and to exonerate the Jews of his death. But Boteach's book has attracted plenty of criticism, for instance for blaming the Apostle Paul for everything he doesn't like about Christianity, such as hailing Jesus as divine and cutting his ties to Judaism.
"Paul never met Jesus, and Jesus certainly never would have sanctioned Paul's actions and embellishments," Boteach argues about the apostle who wrote much of the New Testament. "Jesus ... would have been appalled at how his followers would later define him."
"Jews will never accept his divinity. Nor should they," Boteach writes, in one of many instances of presuming to know what Jesus really thought and meant. "The belief that any man is God is an abomination to Judaism, a position that Jesus himself would maintain."
He cherry-picks the Gospels to to suit his arguments, writes in casual modern idioms (calling Pontius Pilate a "sadistic mass murderer" and comparing him to Hitler), and gets wrong the most basic details of the Passion story, such as the amount of money Judas took to betray Jesus.
Other experts in the field label Boteach's book "sensationalistic," and call him a "popularizer," but Kessler sees "Kosher Jesus" as part of the trend of Judaizing Jesus. Cohen, the "My Jesus Year" author, offered some support for Boteach even as he expressed doubts about the book.
"I understand what Shmuley is trying to get at there," he said, but added: "I don't think anyone has the right to say 'This is the definition of Jesus,' especially a rabbi. He's not ours to claim."
Levine, who teaches New Testament and Jewish studies at Vanderbilt University Divinity School, also framed Jewish efforts to study Jesus in terms of mutual respect.
"Speaking personally as a Jew, if I want my neighbors to respect Judaism, which means knowing something about Jewish history, scripture and tradition, I owe my Christian neighbors the same courtesy. It's a matter of respect," she said.
She urged Jews to "become familiar with the material and make up their own mind as to how they understand Jesus."
Ironically, she added, Jews can understand their own history more thoroughly through studying the life of Jesus.
"The best source on the period for Jewish history other than (the first-century historian) Josephus is the New Testament," she said.
"It's one of those ironies of history that the only Pharisee writing in the Second Temple period from whom we have records is Paul of Tarsus," she said. " 'The Jewish Annotated New Testament' is designed in part to help Jews recover their own history."
But she also wants Christians to use it to understand Judaism more deeply, she said. While many Christian leaders acknowledge that Jesus was a Jew, she said, not many know much about what that means.
"Many Christian ministers and educators have no training in what early Judaism was like," she said. "Not to take seriously first-century Judaism seems to dismiss part of the message of the New Testament."
Cohen, the "My Jesus Year" author, found that Christians were very interested in Judaism during the 52 weeks he spent going from church to church.
"Many Christians look on Judaism as version 1.0 of their own religion. Because of that historical relationship, they're interested in a lot of the theology of Judaism," he said.

For his part, Cohen learned much that surprised him. "I was shocked when I went to church and heard them give sermons about the Old Testament," he said. "I had no idea Christians read the Old Testament."
"One week, I went to church and the pastor gave exactly the same sermon my rabbi did the night before about Moses and the burning bush, and the pastor did it much better," he continued.
Cohen came away from his Jesus year with a clear understanding of what he believes.
"People ask me all the time if I believe in Jesus. Do I believe he exists? Sure. Do I believe he's your God? Sure, I have no problem with that," he said he tells Christians who ask.
"I understand Christians' love for Jesus and I respect that," he said. "If anything, I learned a lot from them and did become a more engaged Jew, a better Jew, and I appreciate my Judaism more because I hung out with Jesus."

Wingnuts contrive another silly Obama "scandal" — Umbrella-gate!
Pat Cunningham
When U.S. Marines were shown providing umbrella coverage for President Obama and Turkish Prime Minister Recep Tayyip Erdogan at a Rose Garden news conference the other day (see top photo above), the right-wing noise machine went into high gear.
The prevailing opinion among the Obamaphobes was that it was disrespectful of the president to have uniformed members of the U.S. military hold his umbrella.
But, of course, Obama's not the first president to so utilize our military men, as the photo above of George H.W. Bush will attest.
Sarah Palin's snarky comment on Umbrella-gate ("Mr. President, when it rains it ...

E. coli, MRSA can survive for days on planes
Ever sit on a plane and wonder how long the germs left by passengers past plan on hanging around?
A new study examined how long two potentially deadly bacteria – E. coli and MRSA – can live on various surfaces inside an airplane's cabin, and how easily they are transmitted by contact.
Researchers at Auburn University used actual armrests, toilet flush handles, tray tables, window shades, seats and seat pockets provided by Delta Airlines for the study – inoculating them with bacteria and storing them in conditions meant to simulate a pressurized cabin: 75 degrees Fahrenheit at 20% humidity.
In general, bacteria lived longest on the most porous surfaces. For example, MRSA lasted seven days on the cloth seat pocket, six days on the rubber armrest and leather seat, five days on the plastic window shade and tray table, and four days on the steel toilet handle.
"In small nooks, like the ones created by a pore, they are protected from environmental stressors like dehydration, UV and disinfectants," said the lead study author, Kiril Vaglenov.
But the same porous material properties that protect bacteria from threats also seem to prevent them from spreading easily.
By contrast, the bacteria on less porous materials like tray tables, toilet handles and window shades scored much higher than seat pockets and leather seats for transmissibility – meaning bacteria on these surfaces were far more likely to transfer to human skin.
"The best thing you can do to protect yourself when flying is: Before you put anything into your mouth, bring some alcohol hand sanitizer and sanitize your hands. It's all about risk mitigation," said Michael Schmidt, a professor of microbiology and immunology at the Medical University of South Carolina.
"After I wipe my hands, I use the rest of the alcohol wipe to wipe down the tabletop, just in case I touch it and inadvertently eat something."
The study did not take bacterial samples from actual aircraft cabins.
"We have efficient cleaning specifications that are standardized across our entire operation before all departures and on aircraft that remain on the ground overnight," Delta Airlines said in response to the study. "This includes removing all trash, wiping down all countertops, surfaces and seats, cleaning floors and replacing and restocking pillowcases and blankets among several other procedures."
The study was supported by funds from the Federal Aviation Administration and the Airliner Cabin Environment Research Center.

Gary Tuchman reports on a sixth grade teacher in Minnesota who is accused of putting black and special needs students in the back of his classroom. Timothy Olmsted was placed on leave this past January, and then resigned two months later. But, he's still getting paid.
"He separated me from the white kids and sent me to the other side of the room where all the black kids were," a 12-year-old girl said. Black students told their parents and grandparents that Olmsted repeatedly called them "stupid, sloppy, and disgusting."
Some of the children and their families have filed a civil lawsuit against Olmsted and the The St. Paul School District. Watch the report and see what happens when our crew asks Olmsted about the allegations.
UPDATE: The federal racial discrimination lawsuit filed by the families against the St. Paul, Minnesota school district has been settled. It provided a monetary award to the families. The amount, and other terms of the settlement have been ordered by the court to be kept confidential. Following the settlement, the same school district sent this letter to Timothy Olmsted's attorney.
can anyone please tell me when will the racism will end ?this is just ridicules , i bearly have my tear on my eyes too for these girls
when we lived in clio, alabama the teacherr in my son's class had the only four white students in the class at the four corner' s of the classroom.
I'm not surprised and nothing has changed in this country.
You cannot help but feel sypmathy for these children. What a terrible thing to happen to them. Life is hard enough as it is without having to face bigotry and racism. Good for CNN to expose this.I hope these kids know that there are plenty of white folks who love them and care about them. I hope they can go into the world with confidence and love in their hearts.
The fact that this is still going on in 2012 shows just how little we've evolved as a species.
I cannot think of anything more despicable for a Teacher to do . I remember a Thomas Jefferson Principal ( S. A. Tx.) in the late nineties, making a comment to Special Need Students, that they shouldn't even be allowed in the Regular School Area. He is lucky, my son, learning disabled at the time ( Now, he makes more money, than most Regular Students , he went to School with) insisted on my not reporting him. I would have gone straight to the Media. Isn't this against the Law ? Who would support this man ?
what about slapping a student? Or making them wear a dunce cap? or making them write on the board that they are stupid?.. are those worse
The teachers union and the Democratic Party support all types of poor teachers. Teachers vote. Parents want the best for their kids so they support teachers. i am certain good teachers would not support this one.
The united states will always have racial people,many families teach their children how to treat other races when they encounter them,from a ceo to a garbage truck driver,manny carribean blacks are oppressed by carribean hispanics manny american blacks are oppressed by american whites and manny mexicans are oppressed by cubans,i have witness this and have been told several times by these people,and i still encounter this treatment myself.this teacher is a product of this.
Differences do not bring people together, never in the history of the world has multiculturalism evolved, so these instances are understandable if not expected.
As a Retired Special Education Teacher for 35-years: I am made to stand at awe when I read articles such as this. As a Male teacher I worked with My Parents. Sent a Weekly LESSON PLAN, as what I plan to cover through out that week. For commucation: Parents VS Teacher, I gave My phone number at My Home for them to use Monday thru Thursday between 7:00 pm to 9:00 pm regarding problems that they might have. Each Parents repected this.The more that I read regarding Teachers, I just don't understand why they are in Education. A Child is the Most Precious Gift that a Parent or a Teacher could ever have. I have no idea how a Person can be Screened Out to Seek the Reason they have choosen to be Teacher? What can I say to You The Parent ? I really Can't: In closing I want You to know, that I NEVER OR COULD I HAVE A CHILD THAT I DIDN'T LIKE. ( A TEACHER WHO CARES;)
Where did the albino kids sit?
As a mother of a teacher in the Delaware County/Springfield school district, I can attest to the type of behavior our teachers are subjected to daily. The schools are out of control, particularily student behavior in the poorer neighborhoods.My daughter has been subjected to a continous barage of horrible conduct -from students constantly disrupting the classroom, throwing paper airplanes and pencils at the teacher, standing on desks, not doing the assigned work, verbally abusing the teacher, and afterwards, the teacher gets no support from administration to address these problems. The administration itself is part of the problem by turning its back on addressing behavior which impedes all students' learning. I believe when the facts come out, we'll find out that the Minnesota teacher has been a subject of this type of abuse, and when he addressed it, it becomes a racial issue as opposed to a behavioral issue. It's time also, that the teachers grow a spine and enforce proper behavior with administrative support. Its time that parents take responsibility for their childrens' conduct and be held liable for this type of conduct. In all fairness, I suggest that CNN present a hidden-camera documentary on the life of an average school teacher and get the true facts before siding with one side or another.
I would welcome that hidden documentary... I think you find there are as many bad teachers as there are bad students. I realize some teachers are dedicated and overworked but that is not to say that horrible teachers do not exist. I had a few myself, like the old guy that sat on the edge of his desk touching his balls all day and putting the kids struggling in math in one corner and calling them stupid and worthless and constantly embarrassing them in front of other students. Yes it is ok to point out the other side but you sounded as though these students were just playing a race card when they are problems. You do not know that to be true but obviously your mind goes directly there. I could write a book about what I have seen with teachers and administrators that don't belong in reach of our children.
An execellent point. I would like to see video cameras in these types of class rooms to see what is really happening. Poor behaviors by a few students can disrupt the education of an entire class. Teachers have few options when trying to deal with issues. The parents of good kids should be outraged that their childrens classes are out of control and class time is wasted by poorly behaving kids. Splitting up kids that don't behave has been going on forever. I doubt we have all the facts in this case from this video. If the teacher is a fault deal with it. If it's student behaviors then parents should be held accountable.
This is horrible. These practices must be identified and stopped not only in Minnesota but all over the country. I suggest parents drop by the school periodically and see for themselves where their child is sitting in the classroom.
This article is very good for the readers. With good content, this article is appreciative and helpful to us. Keep sharing this article in future also. Thank you for it.

Yesterday, the people who run NASA's Chandra X-ray Observatory announced that they had imaged the longest particle jet yet seen in the Milky Way. The jet, seen in the lower right in the image above, has reached this length because its source, a neutron star known as IGR J11014-6103, also happens to be one of the fastest moving neutron stars ever spotted, possibly traveling as fast as eight million kilometers an hour.
Neutron stars are formed in supernova explosions, which are typically symmetrical. As a result, many of them never leave the supernova remnant in which they form. In some cases, however, asymmetries in the explosion give the neutron star a nudge and send it traveling from the site where the exploding star sat. In the case of IGR J11014-6103, the nudge was anything but gentle; preliminary estimates of its speed place it at between four and eight million kilometers an hour, making it one of the fastest moving neutron stars ever spotted.
But the new observations show that, in addition to its high speed, the neutron star has a feature that's less unusual: high-energy particle jets that mark it as a pulsar. In this case, the jets appear to be emitted in a direction that's perpendicular to the neutron star's motion, making them tail off at an angle. In addition, kinks in the jets suggest that the axis of rotation of the neutron star has a significant wobble in it.
Further observations of the system could help clarify the features of the asymmetries that sent the neutron star packing and give us a glimpse into the processes that produce a supernova.
For more details and a higher-resolution image, you can visit the Chandra site.

Surface Mount Wraparound Fixtures
Are you looking to replace or add lighting to hallways, basements, or laundry rooms? Install wrap around lights. These lights are recognizable by their one-piece lens that wraps the fixture, diffusing the light output. Surface mounted light fixtures shine light from the sides and down for all around illumination, unlike troffers or panels which are recessed into the ceiling and can only emit light straight down. If you want a more decorative look to match your decor, look for fixtures with scroll work or a rounded "cloud" design. Some fixtures meet Energy Star, Title 24, or DLC certifications and may be eligible for local or state rebates.
Types of Wraparound Fixtures
Wrap around lights are available in LED, LED ready, and fluorescent options. LED wraparound fixtures eliminate the need for fluorescent or LED tubes. These surface mount LED fixtures outlast and outperform fluorescent fixtures, saving money on energy costs. When the LEDs go out, you simply replace the fixture. Some fixtures can be paired with 0-10V dimmer controls.
LED ready fixtures are designed to use single-ended direct wire LED tubes that are sold separately. This allows you to choose the amount of light you want (Lumens) and your desired Kelvin color temperature (color of the light emitted). LED tubes are easy to replace as they go out, saving you from needing to replace the entire fixture.
If you are looking for fixtures that don't have a high upfront cost, consider fluorescent wrap around lights. Available in 2-foot and 4-foot lengths, these fixtures use T8 fluorescent tubes that are sold separately. This allows you to tailor the lighting for a specific room or space. Several fixtures have a more decorative appearance and some can be stem mounted.
Where Can I Use Surface Mounted Light Fixtures?
Wraparound fixtures can be used in a variety of locations around your home or business. Fixtures rated for indoor or dry locations should only be used in areas where no water or moisture is present such as offices and retail stores. If you are installing your fixture in stairwells, attics, or other locations where humidity may be present, look for a fixture that is damp location rated. While damp location rated fixtures can't come in direct contact with water, wet location rated fixtures are a good choice for commercial bathrooms and parking garages.
